After the mixing, 1lt of the mixture has 0.8lt of milk and 0.2lt of water. 1lt of milk costs Rs.12 so 0.8lt of milk costs 0.8 x 12 = 9.6
He sells the mixture at Rs.15,
so profit%=(15-9.6)/9.6 x 100 = 56.25%

consider the tank capacity as 90 litres.
to fill the tank in 3 hrs first pipe must flow at a rate of 30 litres/hr
2nd pipe has to flow at a rate of 45 litres/hr
if two pipes are opened at a time the flow rate will become 75 litres/hr
90/75= 6/5 = 1.2= (i.e) 1hr and 12 minutes 1 1/5 hr

The answer for this question is very simple: it is called Ceaser Cipher.
It consists of replacing a character by another located in (current character position + (key-1)), where key = how many positions you want to skip.
For Example: VICTORY -> YLFWRUB with the key = 3.
Then SUCCESS -> QXFFHQQ

Note: it should work like a circle(Z+1 = A).

X×x-x=272
X^2-x-272=0
(X-16) or (x-17)
X=16 or x=17

17^2-17=272
Answer Is 17

If division of 3 is allowed then I might do 5 divisions in one go & do in less iterations. I would assume max 2 division as you have to hands, and compare the weight.

let MP = 100x
25% discount = 75x -> SP
Profit% = (Profit/CP)x100
125 = (75x/CP)x100
.: CP = 60x

Now if discount = 10%
SP = 90x
.: Profit% = ((90x-60x)/60x)x100 = 50%
